Alaska Airlines will add daily nonstop service to New York via John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) from San Diego International Airport (SAN) beginning April 4. Alaska Airlines joins three other airlines that also provide nonstop service to JFK.

“We thank Alaska Airlines for adding new, nonstop service to JFK from SAN,” said Kimberly Becker, San Diego County Regional Airport Authority President and CEO. “This service will complement Alaska Airlines’ daily nonstop service to Newark Liberty International Airport, providing passengers with additional options to get to the New York metropolitan area. We appreciate Alaska Airlines’ investment in San Diego as a West Coast hub.”

This is the first new route Alaska Airlines has added this year. The airline will begin nonstop service to Missoula, Mont. March 18. Tickets are already on sale at alaskaair.com.
